I have not gotten my period even after taking Meprate, and it is now 15 days late. My pregnancy test is negative. What could be the reason, and what should I do next?

Meprate usually induces periods within 5to10 days after stopping. Delay may be due to hormonal imbalance or stress. Repeat a Beta hCG blood test to confirm pregnancy status. Do hormone profile including TSH, Prolactin, and FSH. Get a Pelvic Ultrasound to rule out PCOS or other causes.

Dr. Yusuf Suggests...

Take a Beta HCG Test Test or Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test

It is happening for the first time that my periods are delayed for 1 week. Urine and blood pregnancy tests are negative. Recently a doctor prescribed me vitamin C tablets and now my new doctor prescribed me methylprogesterone acetate tablets twice a day for 5 days. I took 3 tablets till now but my periods have not come yet. What could be the reason?

Doctor I have 11 days late period and two negative pregnancy tests. What is the main reason doctor? Can you please suggest me some?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am not married and have never had sexual intercourse, but my period has been delayed for 60 days. I consulted a doctor, who prescribed folic acid and iron tablets for 10 days. I completed the course, but my period still has not started. I do not have thyroid or hormonal problems. What could be the reason, and what should I do?
